Oh boy. Things have been really hectic for a while, and the dust is slowly starting to settle. Alex and I moved out of Oakland to the 'burbs -- 25 miles inland...
Lani, Sounds great! (but your old neighborhood sounds wonderful too). Joyce and I are planning to come out to your neck of the woods the week after I do the...
... So many folks on this list do the Indy Mini... maybe I should check into it one of these days. :) We have friends who are camping at Sequoia Nat'l Park at...
The Indy Mini really is a good one. It is the largest half in the nation and is superbly well organized. It has a large expo and pasta dinner with John...
Congratulations on the move, Lani! The new place sounds wonderful, especially for active people like you & Alex. That 13-mile trail sure does make it seem...
It sounds as if Lani has found a good place to live. I remember some years ago spending time at Camp Parks just outside of Dublin. At the risk of incurring...
I just finished my ten mile run in preparation for the Indy half marathon next month. It feels good to be on the downward slope now! Taper City for me....
Hey guys I went out and ran 3 miules on Saturday and 2 on Sunday, nothing strange there except it my first for 9 weeks!. No idea why just worked out that way...
Hey Col, My brother in law is doing Edinburgh (his first marathon) to raise money for my work so hopefully I'll be going down to cheer him on :) I think it...
Glad to hear that you got out there and ran over the weekend. Sounds like a good way to get back into the routine of things. I have been so out of exercising...
I also did 3 miles Saturday and 2 on Sunday - what a coincidence! Now I'm on a business trip and forgot my pedometer, so I only did a mile this morning since...
Hi Elaine Edinburgh is a big charity race second only to London in the UK so they say. In the magazine they sent it mentioned they are in negotiations to have...
Thanks Tammy Will be out again tommorow morning. I feel better for it but my legs aint so sure. We dont have many 5ks here which is a shame as it is a great...
That is spooky (Dare i sing its a small world after all :-) ) I couldnt manage a 3 day running bonanza though! Are you doing full or half in January?. Col ... ...
Just the half for me - I cannot imagine running 26.2 miles! I did the half this year (first time ever entering any sort of running/race/endurance event) but...
Hello all! I've been training quite a bit. I joined our local running club too. It's been good for me. I get out early to run 5 miles on Mondays and...

Col, I don't know if you have place to stay in Edinburgh, but from experience the Fredrick House Hotel is a decent place. It is close to the train station,...
Congratulations on your half finish, it was quite a challenging distance for your first event, both times i ran the full distances i ended up getting injured...
good luck to you and your daughter for the half, there is nothing as rewarding as helping others get their first steps on the running ladder. Someone i work...
Thanks for the tip Russ but im only 35 mins away on the train so will travel in on race day, perhaps Elaine might or her brother in law might use the tip. Hows...
Just wondering if anyone is planning on running BOTH the half and full next year? Disney has recently changed their website hinting at a special award for...
Charles I was hoping to do Disney in 2006 and the idea of doing something 'goofy' sounds like a lot of fun:) I know I can walk 60km in 2 days. I've done it...
... I'm not doing it this year, but it does sound like a good challenge to put on the "some day" list! Several penguins did the challenge in Tampa this...
I'm a bit of a lurker here but have officially registered for the 1/2, full and 5k. Gimme those medals! Loved doing the half this year. I plan to run the...
A reader sent me email asking me if Disney pulls runners off the course for wearing headphones. I am in the middle of a loooong response (about how in a...
Lani I have never seen anyone being pulled for this and would agree that in my experience (and given how long it took me to complete the full and half i was ...
Thats just typical, you get the Mickey,Donald, do the 5K, you think your finished.....then..... GOOFY, i cant do it this year as my plans are made for the...
